Rockstars With Style (Part One!): Hey Ozzy, Robert & Co., Do You Mind If I Pilfer Your Wardobes? ♥

Or at the very least, sit here and appreciate your style quietly. You know, whatever works. (Personally? I'd definitely prefer to thieve all of your clothing, but apparently that's ''illegal'' these days. JEEZ!)
I mean, just look at Led Zeppelin's frontman Robert Plant and his tambourine-playing, open-paisely-shirt-wearing, dove-holding, long-curls-flowing glory, and tell me that you wouldn't seriously consider spending time behind bars to acquire his collection of tight-fitting flares and necklaces to artfully layer! (As helpfully displayed in the visual aid below.)
Or how about Queen's Freddie Mercury (my favourite!) and his assortment of theatrical jumpsuits?
And then there's Ozzy Osbourne. Ooh. I've always secretly had a bit of a ''thing'' for Ozzy, and this photo is a marvellous example of why!
These probably aren't, but let's direct our attention to the spectacle that is his sequinned cape, impressive army of rings, and penchant for experimenting with his hair colour (ten points for bravery, Ozzy!) and black nail polish instead.
And finally? Slash! HI, Slash!
What This Isn't:
An endorsement for smoking. Or a ''let's-take-a-snipe-at-smokers'' party. (Let's just leave the subject of cigarettes out of the equation on this occasion for everyone's benefit, shall we?!)
What This Is:
A picture of Guns & Roses guitarist Slash in all his finery. He traditionally favours leather, rocks the top hat and aviator sunglasses like nobody's business, and the fact that he can wear a faded denim vest and still look, um, smoking?! (Oops! Bad pun.) Perhaps I'll have to consult him on how to make my future jail attire more appealing..

Wow, Freddy Mercury can rock a jumpsuit better than a Vogue model during jumpsuit...season.

My boyfriend is disturbed by how much he looks like a young Ozzy Osbourne. Hahahaha! (Well, at least before he cut his long hair off).
But yes, I would risk jail time to pilfer the wardrobes of these chaps. HELL YES.

I had no idea ozzy looked so hot when he was younger! And I have to agree that slash does indeed look smokin!

There's always something to learn from great rockstars. Ditto.

Oh! Oh! Oh! I loooooooooooove Slash (we have that curly thing in common) he's awesome and the top hat!
Robert Plant has awesome hair as well, but my favourite curls are Dave Mustaine's XDD (Alekz and co educate me on all things rock).
Freddie's jumpsuits are unbelieveable!

<p>Tara - Agreed. Although I'd love to try it! Kristy - Haha awww, thank-you so much for your comment, Kristy! Slash definitely IS the King Of Cool among rockers! (There were so many good photos - not impossible to believe! - of him out there that I very seriously considered dedicating an entire post to him alone, argh..) Zmaga - Me too! (Which is why that I had to make this a 'Part One', so that I could share more, more, MORE!) And thank-you! Katie - Haha awww, poor Ozzy. He does, but to quote 'The Simpsons': ''oh, the ravages of age!''</p>

was admiring the pics of Robbie and his gorgeous stylin'...getting into the ones of Ozzy and his amazingly awesome bling...but then Slash - oh lord Slash! Is there any sexier man on the planet? Seriously? Hands down King of cool among the rockers :o)

Haha, excellent post! I have always admired rock star style but I think you have to be super skinny/addicted to drugs/a wee bit more hardcore than I am to pull it off...
